Eco-Diakonia Youth Hub 2026: global 3-month online training programme
Applications open on 4 February and close on 1 March 2026.
The 2026 cohort marks the beginning of a three-year youth formation process, structured to support long-term leadership development and impact. The programme will unfold in three phases: training in 2026, local application and evaluation in 2027, and mentorship in 2028.
The Eco-Diakonia Youth Hub will bring together 20–25 young leaders ages 20–30 for a transformative learning journey that combines theological reflection, practical skills development, and collaborative action planning. Participants will explore how faith-based service and advocacy can contribute to climate justice and resilient communities.
The training will take place from May to July 2026, with online sessions held on Fridays at 15:00 CET.
Specific session schedules will be confirmed by the assigned moderators and facilitators.
Through the Eco-Diakonia Youth Hub, the WCC continues to invest in young people as vital agents of hope, justice, and transformative diakonia in a time of climate crisis.
